Just rescued him/her from our cats on Fernholme Road in Nunhead. Clearly a pet not afraid of people. Blue tag on a leg but cant read it clearly. Pic attached. Call 02072528498 if it's yours! Also if anyone has a spare cage we could borrow let us know - no idea where we can put the bird tonight

There was a thread on here recently with people saying they'd seen a cockatiel on the loose (a pet not one of the green parakeets that have bred and live in the wild in london now) and someone posted saying...


'There is a note on a tree about 2 lost cockatiels and for the life of me I cant remember where it is .Am racking my brains to remember.Got a feeling its on the SE15 side of Peckham Rye near Strakers Road which leads to the car park on the Rye.'


is it definitely a parrot not a cockatiel? if it's a cockatiel then the owners are obviously looking, but unless someone knows where the 'missing poster' is then how can you re-unite them?


how big is he? I'm trying to imagine him grooming your shoulder! :)

maybe he can talk and will reveal details of his owners in conversation!

Well done you !

No cage to offer ,but maybe try large cardboard box - might be used to being in a cage and covered at night ?

I'm sure owner will be distraught and looking for pet .

Wish I could be more help . ( or any help ! )

Good luck.

He (or she) is very tame. Prefers to perch on shoulders rather than anywhere else. Could not have been lost for long because it cant fly far and our cats nearly made a meal out of it. Just wish we could find owners quickly we are not set up for a pet bird in this house!

Um ,well - I have a cat carrying box .

Wonder if that would do ?

It's metal ,solid floor ,rest of it has bars ..

Guess would need a wash ,not dirty but would the parrot smell cat ?

PM me if you think might help.


It's like these ,but with a flat top ,not domed.

Don't want to be a downer but got to ask: Did he/she get hurt by the cat? If so, it really needs to go to the vet asap for anti-biotic jab. Cat saliva has bacteria which can build up to kill a bird even if the injuries were only minor.


I have a sackful of good quality bird seed, also black sunflowers, I could let you have some if you're stuck what to feed it in the meantime - the green parakeets love them. I'm in Kelvington Road, Nunhead - off Cheltenham/Ivydale Roads.

    • Labour have changed a number of things overnight.   1. VAT on school fees - this has resulted in 25,000 moving until state education. 2. Increasing NICs adding billions to the cost of going to work. 3. Introducing the Employment Rights Bill causing employers to stop hiring. This and item 2 have added 100,000 people to the unemployment scrapheap. These are also causing businesses to relocate further harming the economy. 4. Scrapping all the small boats deterrents meaning 60,000 illegal migrants have arrived in small boats since they were elected. 5. Dishing out huge public sector payroses with no conditions so we have a massively increased payroll and doctors etc arestill going out on strike. 6.changed IHT and non domicile tax rules causing 16,500 millionaires to leave the UK and stop paying any tax here at all forever. 7. Alongside 6, leaving the budget up until an historically late period after the last budget has caused a house price crash, killing the market and decimating government stamp duty receipts. 8. Their profligate borrowing (£100bn extra in just one year) to fund all their lavish promises means the government can now only borrow at the highest ever yields on records. They are more beholden to the bond markets than Liz Truss was. 9. The rate of inflation has doubled under this government. It was a healthy 2% when they came in. For most of the last year, as a result of all of the above it is now nearly 4%.   These are all decisions the Labour government took that have immediate cause and effect.  Its no good harking back to 15 years ago. The current administration was gifted the fastest growing economy in the G7 and within 15 months they have destroyed it.    And things are only going to get worse this winter.      
    • I use Autocar Repair in West Dulwich.. been using them for over 20 years. Excellent service… 
    • A lot to agree with here - don’t get me started on Irish people complaining about immigration! - but that final paragraph is once again a cop out  there’s a lot of extreme right wing money stirring up the division that people are feeling - but there is zero excuse for handing power to these people. We live in a democracy and if we have enough people willing to give it up then judging those people foolish enough to do so is not only something that will happen, it is something that the rest of us should be morally compelled to do  if someone wouldn’t “normally” vote for a racist party yet somehow will do so because they hear someone like me saying that would be bad, then you better believe I’m judging them
    • We can't use our kitchen for a while and so looking for an air fryer to plug the gap. Please let me know if you have a good one in working order.  07702 305 310 Thanks
